Destiny: Age of Triumph’s Vault of Glass is Live, Challenge Modes Revealed

The Templar and Atheon are your challenges.

If you’re not caught up on Destiny’s Age of Triumph event, then each week sees a new raid featured with all Challenge modes active. With the old raids returning, last week saw Crota’s End. This week, it’s Vault of Glass so get cracking for those new gear pieces, weapons (both normal and Adept) and Ornaments.

What are the Challenges though? There are two for the entire instance: Templar and Atheon, the final boss. The Templar Challenge is pretty straightforward – block his teleport by standing in the white circle continuously and simply defeat the boss. Don’t ignore the Oracles though as they can wipe you even with the Relic’s cleanse.

As for Atheon, it’s slightly more complicated. When traveling to either the left or right portals, you’ll see six Oracles. Each Guardian in the raid must kill one Oracle. That means Guardians on the outside must open the portal and head inside to help kill Oracles. The portal can’t be closed and even the Relic bearer must kill an Oracle.

Simple enough, right? It also seems that the Vex Mythoclast is a drop from the final boss and not a quest like Necrochasm (though obtaining the Crux of Crota is still random).
